Yes, you can make a summer quilt without batting. You can place a backing fabric (your choice) on the back, quilt it and then bind it as a regular quilt. Or you can make it with the birthing method. Place backing fabric right sides together on top of your quilt top, sew it around the sides., leave about 4-5 inches for turning. Turn right side out and slip stitch the opening and wa-la, you have a summer quilt.
